Monster Ball Tour - my review

My mother and I went to Lady Gaga's Monster Ball Tour at Ahoy Rotterdam yesterday, and we sure had a blast! The last time I saw the show, back in May at Gelredome Stadium in Arnhem, I had general admission floor tickets and ended up front row. This time, we were in the seated part of Ahoy, but we were in the best seats available, very near the stage with a great view.

Opening act Semi Precious Weapons was horrible as usual, so we used the time to get ourselves a drink. When they finished, we went looking for our seats, and enjoyed the 45 minutes of Michael Jackson songs played through the PA. After a while the lights went out, and the already famous intro of Dance In The Dark started. The crowd went wild and stayed that way the entire show. Gaga was in great shape, both physically, as well as her voice. On top of that, she was in a great mood and talked a lot to the audience.

Vanity was cut from the setlist, but in return we got a great long version of You And I (a new song from Gaga's upcoming album Born This Way) as well as a really long version of Teeth.

All in all, the show was perfect, even better than the one at Gelredome in May. The Monster Ball plays at Ahoy Rotterdam again tonight, and I wish I could be there for yet another show!
